Despite his desire to be traded, the sources said New England are still not entertaining offers for Nguyen. Paul Tenorio reported on Feb. 1 that Chicago and Montreal were interested in the attacker.

Nguyen, who had 11 goals and 15 assists in 2017 and has been one of the most productive midfielders in MLS over the past few years, underwent a physical last Friday and trained individually while the Revs practiced in New England before departing for Tucson, Ariz. on Sunday.

Nguyen did not travel with the team to Arizona, remaining in New England to work on his fitness, according to a team spokesperson. The spokesperson said that it’s possible Nguyen could join the team in Tucson if he becomes fit enough to participate in full-team training before they break camp and return to New England on Feb. 25. The Revs will open the 2018 season on March 3 at Philadelphia.
